and at the same time makes me glad that I do not have money. for spending my money on these beautiful products is frivolous, considering all of the other worth while investments that are out there, such as furthering the gospel locally and globally, providing clean water for children, and so on and so forth. it is sad to me that i am eager to spend my money on things that will wither away instead of investing in treasures that will last forever and affect the lives of those near and far. I am grateful for for beautiful things that remind of the fact that my heart is in the wrong place.
but hey if they go on sale then thats not so bad ;) he he, because man that first sweater is fantastic :D

the most wonderful home work that has ever been assigned to me :) i just love my classes :)

intermediate oil painting class :) taught by the lovely Rebecca Morris, we had to make one "good painting" and one "bad painting" good and bad could mean what ever you wanted this is what i did ^

illustration class :) ^ taught by Richard Osaka he had us illustrate 2 or more words that he put up on the board, i chose blue fragile and nice. this is what happened :)
i love how much artistic freedom i have been given in all my classes!
what i am working on right now it my sculpture project she asked us to make a sculpture out of found or recycled materials :) i am so excited! and slightly nervous given the short amount of time i have for completion, pray for me!

i have been legitimatelybusy this past week. I am not generally legitimately busy, i'm often busy doing busy work, busy drawing, busy painting busy sewing busy thinking and nannying..... which i guess is more lagit.. but this week has been a doozy with strange vacations to Lake Tahoe/Carson City, dealing with fires (which thank you Lord have moved away from us :) the start of school and the start of homework. luckily for me my home work is fun :) considering i am taking 3 classes being Intermediate painting, sculpture and illustration (FUN!) i guess i can not call my self lucky for it was by my choosing that i am in these classes and these classes alone, but you can call me happy :)

this is part of my home work for my painting class :) its a portrait of my lovely sister Malah, this is my way of dealing with my sister alone with the fires.

anyway HAPPY FRIDAY! today has been such a relief for me :) i have barely left my home :) got to love weekends :) particularly after a week such as this...

love and kisses ~bree
